This task takes one or more filenames and turns them into URLs, which it then assigns to a property. Useful when setting up RMI codebases. Nested filesets are supported; if present, these are turned into the url with the given separator between them (default = " "). Example
<makeurl file="${user.home}/.m2/repository" property="m2.repository.url" />
Sets the property m2.repository.url
to the file: URL of the local Maven2 repository. <makeurl property="codebase"> <fileset dir="lib includes="*.jar"/> </makeurl>
Set the property codebase
to the three URLs of the files provided as nested elements.
